Title: Single Family Housing
Guaranteed Loan Program.
OMB Number: 0575–0179.
Expiration Date of Approval:
December 31, 2020.
Type of Request: Revision of a
Previously Approved Information
Collection.
Abstract: Under this program, loan
guarantees are provided to participating
lenders who make loans to income
eligible borrowers in rural areas. The
purpose of this program is to promote
affordable housing for low- and
moderate-income borrowers in rural
America.
The revision resulted from an
estimated increase of 1,714,757
responses and 681,089 burden hours
since the last submission. Any change
in hours is a result of increased program
level funding and demand by the
public. Also considered is a change in
the average loan amount, additional
lenders participating in the program,
due to a change in the program funding
level and a keener interest by industry
partners. Backlogs in some States
caused delays in processing lender
requests that resulted in various turnaround times from state to state.
Integration of the SFHGLP into the
National model was necessary to
provide lenders improved customer
service, consistent turn times and policy
interpretation.
Estimate of Burden: Public reporting
burden for this collection of information
is estimated to average 49 minutes per
response.
Respondents: Private sector lenders
participating in the Rural Development
Single Family Housing Guaranteed Loan
Program.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
2,520.
Estimated Number of Responses per
Respondent: 737.
Estimated Number of Responses:
1,766,094.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: 1,361,748.

All responses to this notice will be
summarized and included in the request
for OMB approval. All comments will
also become a matter of public record.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On February 4, 2020, the Department
of Commerce (Commerce) initiated the
countervailing duty (CVD) investigation
of certain vertical shaft engines between
225cc and 999cc, and parts thereof from
the People’s Republic of China.1
Currently, the preliminary
determination is due no later than April
9, 2020.
Postponement of the Preliminary
Determination
Section 703(b)(1) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the Act), requires
Commerce to issue the preliminary
determination in a CVD investigation
within 65 days after the date on which
Commerce initiated the investigation.
However, section 703(c)(1)(A) of the Act
permits Commerce to postpone the
preliminary determination until no later
than 130 days after the date on which
Commerce initiated the investigation if
a petitioner makes a timely request for
a postponement. Under 19 CFR
351.205(e), a petitioner must submit a
request for postponement 25 days or
more before the scheduled date of the
preliminary determination and must
state the reason for the request.
Commerce will grant the request unless
it finds compelling reasons to deny the
request.2

petitioner in this investigation,
submitted a timely request pursuant to
section 703(c)(1)(A) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.205(e) to postpone fully the
preliminary determination. The
petitioner stated that the purpose of its
request was to provide Commerce with
sufficient time to receive and analyze
the questionnaire responses of the
mandatory respondents.3
In accordance with 19 CFR
351.205(e), the reason for requesting a
postponement of the preliminary
determination and the record does not
present any compelling reasons to deny
the request. Therefore, in accordance
with section 703(c)(1)(A) of the Act,
Commerce is postponing the deadline
for the preliminary determination to
June 15, 2020.4 Pursuant to section
705(a)(l) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.210(b)(1), the deadline for the final
determination will continue to be 75
days after the date of the preliminary
determination, unless postponed at a
later date.
This notice is issued and published
pursuant to section 703(c)(2) of the Act
and 19 CFR 351.205(f)(l).

Postponement of Preliminary
Determinations
Section 733(b)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act
of 1930, as amended (the Act), requires
Commerce to issue the preliminary
determination in a LTFV investigation
within 140 days after the date on which
Commerce initiated the investigation.
However, section 733(c)(1) of the Act
permits Commerce to postpone the
preliminary determination until no later
than 190 days after the date on which
Commerce initiated the investigation if:
(A) The petitioner makes a timely
request for a postponement; or (B)
Commerce concludes that the parties
concerned are cooperating, that the
investigation is extraordinarily
complicated, and that additional time is
necessary to make a preliminary
determination. Under 19 CFR
351.205(e), the petitioner must submit a
request for postponement 25 days or
more before the scheduled date of the
preliminary determination and must
state the reasons for the request.
Commerce will grant the request unless
it finds compelling reasons to deny the
request.
On March 5, 2020, the petitioners 2
submitted a timely request that
Commerce postpone the preliminary
determinations in these LTFV
investigations.3 The petitioners stated
that they request postponement due to
the complexity of the investigations and
the amount of time that Commerce will
need to conduct a complete and
thorough analysis, including the
issuance of supplemental
questionnaires.4 The petitioners request

For the reasons stated above and
because there are no compelling reasons
to deny the request, Commerce, in
accordance with section 733(c)(1)(A) of
the Act, is postponing the deadline for
the preliminary determinations by 50
days (i.e., 190 days after the date on
which these investigations were

later than July 16, 2020. In accordance
with section 735(a)(1) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.210(b)(1), the deadline for the
final determinations in these
investigations will continue to be 75
days after the date of the preliminary
determinations, unless postponed at a
later date.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On January 8, 2020, the Department of Commerce (Commerce) initiated
less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigations of imports of forged steel
fluid end blocks (fluid end blocks) from Germany, India, and Italy.\1\
The deadline for the preliminary determinations is May 27, 2020.

Postponement of Preliminary Determinations
Section 733(b)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the
Act), requires Commerce to issue the preliminary determination in a
LTFV investigation within 140 days after the date on which Commerce
initiated the investigation. However, section 733(c)(1) of the Act
permits Commerce to postpone the preliminary determination until no
later than 190 days after the date on which Commerce initiated the
investigation if: (A) The petitioner makes a timely request for a
postponement; or (B) Commerce concludes that the parties concerned are
cooperating, that the investigation is extraordinarily complicated, and
that additional time is necessary to make a preliminary determination.
Under 19 CFR 351.205(e), the petitioner must submit a request for
postponement 25 days or more before the scheduled date of the
preliminary determination and must state the reasons for the request.
Commerce will grant the request unless it finds compelling reasons to
deny the request.
On March 5, 2020, the petitioners \2\ submitted a timely request
that Commerce postpone the preliminary determinations in these LTFV
investigations.\3\ The petitioners stated that they request
postponement due to the complexity of the investigations and the amount
of time that Commerce will need to conduct a complete and thorough
analysis, including the issuance of supplemental questionnaires.\4\ The
petitioners request that Commerce fully extend the preliminary
determinations by 50 days.

Group, and Finkl Steel.
\3\ See Petitioners' Letter, ``Forged Steel Fluid End Blocks
from Germany, India, and Italy: Request to Extend Preliminary
Results,'' dated March 5, 2020.
\4\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the reasons stated above and because there are no compelling
reasons to deny the request, Commerce, in accordance with section
733(c)(1)(A) of the Act, is postponing the deadline for the preliminary
determinations by 50 days (i.e., 190 days after the date on which these
investigations were initiated). As a result, Commerce will issue its
preliminary determinations no later than July 16, 2020. In accordance
with section 735(a)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.210(b)(1), the
deadline for the final determinations in these investigations will
continue to be 75 days after the date of the preliminary
determinations, unless postponed at a later date.
This notice is issued and published pursuant to section 733(c)(2)
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.205(f)(1).
